Pelland v. Rhode Island.

U.S. District Court

PROBATION-CONDITIONS

Pelland v. Rhode Island, 317 F.Supp.2d 86 (D.R.I. 2004). A sex offender probationer challenged Rhode Island's enforcement of a policy that curtailed the right of sex offender probationers to travel interstate. The district court entered judgment for the state, finding that the probationer had no right to travel interstate, and the policy did not violate equal protection nor result in an Ex Post Facto violation. The court noted that the policy did not proscribe interstate travel altogether, but merely imposed various conditions that the Department of Corrections had deemed useful for monitoring the movement of sex offenders who were on probation (Rhode Island Department of Corrections)
